Might As Well Be Me

(album: Brothers Osborne - 2014)

The jukebox won't rock
If there's not a quarter down in it
Preacher man can't preach
If there ain't anyone here sinning
That dusty bottle up on the shelf
Far as I know won't drink itself
GT won't leave
With no key in the ignition

Somebody gotta shake things up
Somebody gotta shut things down
Somebody gotta strike a match
Break the ice and buy the first round
Somebody gotta go all night
Somebody gotta dig down deep

Mean what they say
Say what they mean
Yeah, the way I see
Might as well be me
Might as well be me

Kick drum won't thump
If you don't put your lead foot down
There ain't no one more encore
If there ain't no crowd
It ain't a rule without breaking it
No, it ain't love without making it
Gets better with time
And there's no time better than now
So, look out

Somebody gotta shake things up
Somebody gotta shut things down
Somebody gotta strike a match
Break the ice and buy the first round
Somebody gotta go all night
Somebody gotta dig down deep

Mean what they say
Say what they mean
Yeah, the way I see
Might as well be me

Might as well be me
Might as well be me

Who's gonna ask your name?
Who's gonna buy your drink?
And do what they gotta do
To spend a night with you
Might as well be me

Somebody gotta shake things up
Somebody gotta shut things down
Somebody gotta strike a match
Break the ice and buy the first round
Somebody gotta go all night
Somebody gotta dig down deep

Mean what they say
Say what they mean
Yeah, the way I see

Might as well be me
Might as well be me
Might as well be me

Might as well be me
